He also mentioned that his family had faced a fatal attack.

“The catastrophic incident on June 1, 2001, not only left us physically affected but also created a cloud of misconceptions and negative emotions in the minds of the Nepali people. Our family was also subjected to a fatal attack,” former King Shah said.
